Gulf Air will operate 7 weekly flights on the Bahrain-Munich route starting 25 October 2026. The service will use 166-seat Airbus A321LR aircraft.

Most Gulf Air routes show increased total seat capacity for the northern winter 2026 schedule. This is occurring even as total flight counts are reduced, through deployment of higher capacity Airbus A321neo aircraft.

Delta Air Lines is the largest global operator of the Airbus A220, with total orders for 145 units split between 45 A220-100 and 100 A220-300 aircraft. The A220-300 competes with the Airbus A319-100 and Boeing 737-700, and is favored for efficiency in this segment.

Three additional newly filed routes will use Boeing 787-9 aircraft. All four routes listed in the filings were previously unserved by nonstop flights.
